Manual Handling

Manual Handling occurs in almost every workplace. In some cases the activity does not pose a problem; however it can be a potential workplace hazard when an employee is required to handle heavy loads, which could result in a back injury.

Regulation 69(a) of the 2007 Regulations states that, in order to avoid the need for manual handling of loads by employees, every employer must (a) take appropriate organisational measures, or (b) use the appropriate means, in particular mechanical equipment.

Per the regulations, staff engaged in Manual Handling must be given training in safe manual handling techniques.

Who should attend?

Manual Handling training is aimed at anybody who is involved in the movement of loads, regardless of the industry they work in.
